Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 Review: "Fixing" The Most Popular Foldable

[@speedzero7478]

Samsung has made the mobile phone interesting, fun, and mysterious as we experienced in the early days of smartphones. The Z4 flip is my first flip phone. I hope that this trend catches on and we see more competition and innovation in this space.

[@dstinnettmusic]

And yet again I can’t afford their offerings, meaning that the revolution is all style and no substance. The model T had to be affordable to the people who made it for it to cha he the world.

[@elijah_wolf]

@@dstinnettmusic the way the mobile phone industry works is completely different from how the automobile industry works so i think that's not a fair argument

[@FalconWindblader]

@@dstinnettmusic Really depends on what you mean by 'substance'. the likes of Model T were made to be workhorses even in design stages, & automobiles were hardly a thing back then. on the contrary, foldables are designed right off the bat to be fun, as hardly anyone needs more powerful phones for everyday use & workhorse-like phones are aplenty to begin with. as such, in the case of foldables, unlike the Model T analogy you put forth, style IS substance.

hello you, i'm from the future and the foldable world is looking more and more awesome every day!

[@ChrisGower]

Agreed on the US trade-in offers. I had a battered (but crucially not cracked) S21, and coupled that with a 4-year old S10e that was cracked, and got the Flip4 with the upgraded 256GB storage, free case, Watch5 Pro AND the Buds2 Pro for $640. Not chump change, but considering everything the package includes, it was hard to turn down. Especially as I pay for YT Premium, and it came with 4 months free, so I've paused my own payments and will count that $40 towards it too... (shame that the new battery life isn't all that, but the S21 battery life doesn't tend to last a full day either, so at least I'm used to it!)

With AT&T the trade in has to be a non cracked working phone. I tried S5 Active with a cracked screen then my Note 5 with the cracked back, both nope. So I used my S4 which still was brand new because it was always in a case. In my entire lifetime of owning phones I've only had 3 broken my HP iPAQ, S5 Active, and Note 5.

[@David-vg8ou]

Pre-ordered mine on launch. This is the first flip/fold phone I have ever had. I am not a power user so the battery does not concern me. I will say he is right the deals to be had are insane. I bought the Bespoke Navy ZFlip 4 and I also picked up the Watch 5 Pro because it was only $100 extra (it retails for $450) I was also trying to get the new Buds Pro as well but I could not get it to push through. Those would have been heavily discounted as well I have the Buds Plus and they offered $70 trade-in as well as 30% off so the price would have been around $130.

FYI: Samsung has said that they have expirimented similar hinges to the competition but found that they are less durable and don't allow for water resistance.

[@andyH_England]

I am not sure about less durable, as there is no proof in that, maybe the Samsung one was poorly done, but comparing Samsung foldable issues to other OEMs, then there are a lot more problems with the Fold (though they do sell more). So, do not believe the marketing from Samsung. It is more likely they hold the patents to this method and want to sell it to other OEMs. Sadly, for Samsung, zero interest as it is clearly the less futuristic hinge/crease. As for water resistance, I suspect that dust is far more likely to kill foldable’s than water ingress, as dust is around us, everywhere, but it is very easy to avoid water. So those excuses seem to be half-hearted by Samsung to defend what looks a flawed design. There is zero chance that in 1-2 years anyone will be using the Samsung hinge with that gap and noticeable crease!

[@LaidBackDeveloper]

[@michael_c2]

That might be true but I would take the form factor in these models from oppo, xiaomi and Viva, even if I had to sacrifice water resistance. And honestly, I think the more likely scenario is that Samsung just wants to maximize profit by keeping manufacturing costs down and recycling the same design is the best way to do that for them. I guarantee you if xiaomi, vivo, oppo was being sold in US carrier stores they would do something about the crease in the front screen.

I really enjoy the front display being small. If I wanted a straight up display, I would just open up the phone. It makes sense that the display on the outside is mainly meant for notifications and quick actions. I don’t think it’s a design flaw, or a loss against competition. I think it’s largely intentional and I personally enjoy it:-)

[@mohdazrinasaruddin9744]

Thanks Mr Fisher. Ur the only one who highlighted the most important point that answered a lot: Samsung has NO clear competition in folding phone. No one is as big as Samsung now as to after sale services n support. Not to mention they check all the boxes with "good enough", n thats better than "great" in an area but "unacceptable" in others. Cheers.

[@michael_c2]

No clear competition in the United States and North America. In Europe and Asia and china, it's actually getting smacked around a bit by xiaomi and vivo and oppo. Which have proper front screens that aren't so narrow, flagship camera setups that aren't compromised, and much better creases. We North Americans should remember that the rest of the world exists

@GH0STST4RSCR34M nope, its not just a fancy tick it means they did additional testing to ensure it's water resistant.

Unfortunately, Samsung had quietly gone and lowered the trade-in offers for the 128GB and 256GB Z Flip 3 models. Those are only $700 and $800 respectively. Only the Bespoke version offers the $900 trade-in value. Well, that or the S22 Ultra and Z Fold 3 also, but I digress.

[@andyH_England]

Yes, there was a poll on YT that suggested very few people care a jot about DeX and probably why Samsung is not going anywhere with it. I think the hype from YT influencers is just what Samsung asks them to talk about in their notes (NDA protected) or KZbinrs are the biggest demographic for DeX. Just buy a good tablet for a similar price and have far more and you are not stuck at a desk with a monitor.

Wasn't a fan of trying to fit a case that I could use with magnetic plate. For anyone who buys one I'd suggest going into the battery settings and enabling "light" mode which helps with battery life. They say it slows the phone down but for everyday use I noticed nothing.

[@peacelove8395]

The crease is there because Samsung's hinge style is the only one that allows their fold devices to be water resistant. I learned this watching TechTalk TV KZbin channel and think its really important top quality content creators like you Michael know this and mention it. Samsung have been bashed about the crease by every top level content creator as well as us the tech geeks and yet nobody connected the dots and clocked on to the fact that Xiaomi, Oppo and Huawei between them all fail to offer any water resistance, but yet all share a similar 'tear drop' hinge system.

The 22:9 ratio is kind of genius given the front hole punch camera; when you watch movies in full screen the phone has a black border that hides the camera, but rounds off the corners to make the viewing experience a perfect 21:9 ratio. The screen is silky smooth, the feel premium, the hinge satisfying, and the cover screen offers essential functionality. In short, this phone is exceeding all my expectations for the first 36 hours!

For anyone that changed to this phone from something like a s22 or pixel 6 pro, do you miss the extra real estate or the other screens?

[@edualv320]

Im mostly excited about the new chips and the next ones. The efficiency seems to be much better

[@DashDrones]

I bought one today, have to wait until it releases for them to ship next week though. Why does it need a screen protector with the flip? I hate screen protectors and cases, my pixel 6 Pro is so slippy I scratched the display and smashed the rear glass from sliding off the couch multiple times. I didn't trade in as my carrier gave free Samsung buds and €200 off so worked out better. Pretty glad it's not going to slide off and the screen is protected. Will use the 6 Pro as a backup if I want better shots. Thanks for the review.

Just ordered a new Flip 4 and traded my 20s. I received a $375 credit and a free up grade to more memory. Cannot wait for it to arrive!

I await to see how the new Razr fairs as the crease on the older 2020 model wasn't as noticeable as on the Flip 3 and I didn't hear of any display covering lifting off in the fold section. Shame that they got rid of the typical Razr design language though because too many people complained about the chin (the same people whine about any kind of bezel being found on phones not Samsung or Apple). I'm interested in foldables now as I've found the ever increasing size of phones uncomfortable to carry even in my spacious tactical pants.

I also really liked the design of the Razr 5G, and I don't understand why Moto won't release the new one here. The Razr 5G has high resale value and seems to be in demand at eBay etc., so clearly there is a market for it.

Michael, @11:05 you said "this review was produced following one week with the Galaxy Z Flip 3" instead of Z Flip 4!

[@VynZography]

Hey Mr Mobile, as I commented on some other person's video, I don't mind incremental upgrades, I think they are useful. What pains is when you know something can be done better, and it's not, like that front screen.

[@Itbankrock]

What the hell you guys are lucky af to have those kinds of offers for trade-in programs. Man...

[@DirrtySpice]

Hey Mate. What's the wallpaper name you using on the Flip 4! Looks awesome. Just got my handset today, upgrade from the flip 3....loving it

[@kentyler3962]

Waiting for Samsung to bring back the SD card slot before purchasing a foldable. If you don't need it then don't use it, but if you want one it's nice to have the extra storage for music, photos and video.

[@petersoneugene4383]

I like your videos as much as i like Robert Downey Jr's iron man performance . Also, watching from Haiti

[@mommailuvu]

How’s the battery life compared to the iPhone mini?

[@the_sandman_]

11:07 Was that supposed to be filp 4 review device? 🤔 Awesome video though, watched it on my fold 2 Looking forward to the fold 4 review! 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@if_dots]

I traded my s21 in for $800 for it (best buy in concert with Samsung /also/ has some wild deals - I think they're trying really hard to gain marketshare in the US this year). Excited to have my first flip phone :)

[@KingPaul97]

I love your style of video editing! Please tell me where you learned this skill!!

[@Mr.SneakyShadow]

"In to the fold series" Look forward to seeing you in a starfleet uniform playing poker as an end credit scene in a video, Sadly the uk trade in prices are not that generous, I still believe that samsung next year will have a bigger cover screen much like the moto razor, Simply because 3nm soc chips will be available next year, That should help with making the bigger screen last longer in the battery department,

[@danielpakiam2629]

The ending voiceover says it's a galaxy flip 3 review sample......it should say flip 4

[@TheMrMobile]

Whoops. Haha - thanks!

[@damiengrief]

Can't wait for your Watch 5 Pro and Fold4 reviews.

[@DaBigCheeso]

Trading in the S22 Ultra for Fold 4 and picking up the Watch and Earbuds I got a total over $1700 in discounts and trade ins. $1K of that was the trade in alone for the phone. The discounts are INSANE for preordering. I don't miss paying full price for iPhones every year LOL

[@insenjojo1839]

Just after I pre-booked the Flip 4, I was having buyers anxiety, your review is what I needed at the moment...and SURPRISE! Fisher I cannot thank you enough for this perfectly timed review! Cheers!

[@insenjojo1839]

@@danyalhussain8283 I got the 256 Gigs version along with a free Galaxy Watch 4 Classic 42mm BT and a free wireless Charger Duo all for $1000.....I got the bora purple, which colour did you get?

[@aye3678]

Thank you for your hard work, Michael. Your videos are always so pleasing to watch.

[@BrittonBaker12]

Waiting for Fold review. I cancelled my Flip preorder for a Fold preorder. I cannot wait to get my hands on it.

[@meric12131415]

Looking forward to your long term review mrmobile😁
